China does not release that kind of information, but conidering the one child rule I am sure it is quite high. There have also been countless reports of forced abortions in China. Another reason one must assume they have a high abortion rate is because many people want a boy to carry on the family line. If the ultrasound shows a girl, abort and try again. Disturbing to say the least. I would be willing to bet that if China did release such information, it would be completely outrageous. |

Close to 3 million abortions in a rich country like USA at number two on the list is disturbing...on the other hand i can come to terms with a developing country like Russia toping the list. Americans bow your head in shame! |

2nd place is pretty good. Hopefully contraception will become free and a right for our next generation, then there will be less need for abortions. |

I am sure China would be leading the world by far if they ever released the ghastly figures. Some day their deeds done in secret will be made known - shouted from the mountain tops - revealed to the entire universe! God will not be mocked and his gift of life which continues to be thrown back in his face will find a day of justice is soon approaching! Woe to those who call Good evil and evil Good! Let us pray for our world that God's Greatest gift - his Unfathomable Mercy may be embraced by all and the reign of evil may be vanquished and an era of peace granted to humanity. Viva Jesus! |

If anyone thinks contraception is the answer to fewer abortions, let me tell you that chemical contraceptives kill many more babies than surgical abortion. Our current worldwide abortion holocaust is the fruit of contraception: the idea that you can have unbridled sex without consequences. Attempting to eliminate the physical consequences (pregnancy), has produced devastating consequences in the realm of other physical, spiritual,emotional,mental problems that have taken an enormous toll on society. |

Wake up America! Fr. John Hardon, SJ said " Unless America returns to the fervent practice of the faith of the early Christians the days of this country are numbered." Let us pray the Rosary often as Our Lady ask and make visits to the Blessed Sacrament in reparation. |

May God have mercy on the United States of America! |

To Kate: I will pray for you by name that your passive attitude toward killing these helpless babies be forgiven, for you surely know not what you say. |

As in the time of the Old Testament, the blood of the innocent sacrificied to the idols of mankind will cry out from the ground to Almighty God for vengeance. May we all fall on our faces before Our Lord Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament and beg him to convert our sinful world before it is too late. My God, My God, I love you in the most Blessed Sacrament! |

I wonder if one of the 1,210.880 baby's aborted would have being destine to find the cure for cancer ! |

Catherine (Kaplan, LA) 19th November 2007 |
This comment is to Kate (above) and people with such ignorant minds as such. Don't you know that contraception is abortion? To kill the baby after a few weeks or a few days.. What's the difference. All the countries above should be ashamed. The selfishness in the world is beyond imagination. I pray that God will have mercy on the entire world. |

Kathy (Greenwich, CT) 20th November 2007 |
Lidia, My thoughts exactly. And probably a cure for AIDS as well. Let's keep praying the Rosary and the Chaplet of Mercy to end abortion worldwide. |

All of those babies killed could have been a gift from god to another family. |
